It is very important to understand that I, Barry Kauler, am "retired" and only doing this for fun. I do not provide much support, and do not claim that any release of Quirky6 is a highly polished and bug-free product. it is released as-is.

However, I will probably release some incremental upgrades, with improvements. Besides, there are still a lot of items in my "goals" list that are not yet green!

So, don't bother much with reporting bugs to my news page, or if you do, don't hold your breath waiting for a fix. There is likely, however, to be a group of users who will cooperate to fix any issues -- any such forum thread I will announce on my news page.

So, keep watching my news page for future developments:

When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected

I made a few pets and find the the new2dir takes a long time to create
a pet.
xfe-1.37-i686.pet,xfe_DOC-1.37-i686.pet,xfe_NLS-1.37-i686.pet +
fox-1.6.49-i686.pet,fox_DEV-1.6.49-i686.pet,and
fox_DOC-1.6.49-i686.pet must have taken close to 2 hours, seemed like it did anyway

Billtoo....At the risk of asking the most stupid question of the year....Will Quirky 6.0 run with your SD card in the "locked" position? I guess "no" is the answer but I can hope...would provide a "kiosk" mode similar to what one can obtain running most pups from a frugal install to SD . Thanks....KJ

It won't bootup with the card in the locked position, I just tried it.

Ray MK,
At first I did create a 4GB image, but then I went to my local shopping mall and found the minimum size in all the shops is 8GB.

So, I decided that is to be the minimum.

Billtoo,
Your SeaMonkey popup problem has me extremely puzzled.
The script /usr/bin/seamonkey destroys itself, I don't see how it ca fail to do so.
I guess that I will just have to put in some extra code so that it makes sure that it does definitely destroy itself and create the symlink.

Were all of those PETs compiled in Quirky 6.0?

I will setup an FTP url for you to upload them to. Perhaps those definitely compiled in Q6 can be put into 'pet-quirky6' repo, the others, tested as working, could go i a different repo, maybe 'pet-common'._________________http://bkhome.org/news/
